Why am I posting this? Because there are dozens of FReepers on dozens of threads today who cannot understand that Cruz made a drastic blunder.

If Beto is out there doing something, then how can anyone defend Ted going to Cancun?

Look, I like Cruz. I'll continue to vote for him. But he screwed up.

[Yo-Yo]

Is Beto going door-to-door on his skateboard? If so, he may be the one needing a wellness check.

[DarrellZero]

He’s not up for reelection until 2024. Beto is a moron.

[I want the USA back]

Why do so many Republicans shoot themselves in the foot?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

You are what Rush Limbaugh always called a seminar caller.

You are a seminar poster.

[stanne]

Wait till they find all the dead people in apartments.

Single mothers, babies. Old people.

Cruz is a major screw up here as usual always always tone deaf.

He needs to have been out there threee days ago organizing transportation and warming centers.

The communication on this has been ridiculously bad

But we hear nothing from Biden. If trump said nothing on this if he were in it would be very notorious. No word against Biden. Not a peep

So there’s that

[antidemoncrat]

And I’m sure Beto the Bozo is doing that out of the kindness of his political heart.

[JennysCool]

The Democrats almost never gang up on one of their own for doing something inappropriate.

That’s one of the many reasons why we lose.

[Lurkinanloomin]

I don’t like Cruz and will never vote for him, but this is more about the Ministry of Propaganda’s agenda of gotcha than anything substantive.

[Reno89519]

Lyn’ Ted set this up by his words and actions. He deserves the wrath directed at him. He should resign.

[PA Presbyterian]

Yep, he definitely screwed up. This will come back to bite him if he decides to run for president again. The Texas governor isn’t looking so good, either.

Ted lounging in Cancun while Texans freeze to death in their homes with no heat, hot water, and electricity. Big blunder, Ted.

[Alcibiades]

Yup, a mistake by Cruz and a foolish one.

But here are the options to replace him:

1. Primary him and likely get another Cornyn-type who’s often to the left of Mitch McConnell.

2. Stay home and get Beto who’s to the left of Biden.

[IYAS9YAS]

If people need politicians to organize this crap, then they’re too stupid to survive. People should already be out there doing this stuff for friends, neighbors and family. Politicians just get in the way.

[lasereye]

Is this a news article or a press release from O’Rourke’s staff?

[teeman8r]

ted cruz chaperoned his daughter to cancun, beto will escort his daughter to the abortionist.

i will still support cruz over the beta male...

[FlipWilson]

The media is using you and you are obliging.

Texas will recover from this.

Will our economy recover from the Covid Lockdowns?

And why do I bring those up?

Because the same media that wants you to be outraged over Cruz’s trip had NOTHING to say about the political class violating THEIR lockdown orders that DESTROYED lives. Governors literally ordered people to their deaths in nursing homes and we are talking about a trip to Cancun by a guy who doesn’t have any power to do anything in Texas?

Gee, it couldn’t be that the Dems snd media are trying to deflect attention from something could it.

But hey, they are relying on you so go to town.

[butlerweave]

How many Democrats were already in Cancun ?

[RC one]

He just committed career suicide.

[Ken H]

"And in an interview with CNN, he called out Republicans, including Gov. Greg Abbott (R), who have inaccurately placed most of the blame for the power failures on Texas' renewable energy sources."

========

There you have it. Yahoo sez it it's inaccurate to blame renewables, so it must be inaccurate.

[moviefan8]

Beto is a leader. Ted is not. Beto’s actions show this.

Ted made a bad choice. He needs to be a man, a leader.

[JonPreston]

Go ahead, click on Ted!
